On December 16, the Big West Conference will participate in this year's annual Spark of Love Stuff-A-Bus Toy Drive hosted by ABC7 & Southland Firefighters at Honda Center.

Spark of Love's Stuff-A-Bus campaign collects new, unwrapped toys and sports equipment for children and teens in Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Orange, Ventura and Riverside counties. Over the past 20 years, Spark of Love has collected more than nine and a half million toys, with over half a million toys collected in 2015 alone.

Last year, the Big West Conference was joined by Cal State Fullerton, Long Beach State, and UC Irvine in donating Wilson basketballs and toys for children of all ages.

Spark of Love – organized by the city and county fire departments in Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside and San Bernardino counties and KABC-TV – set a new record for toys collected in 2015, after the event at Honda Center stuffed a record-breaking 31 busses and a flatbed truck with donations.

The BWC, Anteaters, Titans, and Beach will be collecting toys and aiding in the event at 4 p.m. The first 100 fans to donate a gift will receive a 2017 Big West Basketball Tournament ticket voucher.
